Pittsburgh Weather: Brutal Cold Stretch Expected Over Next 48 Hours

By Ron Smiley, CBS Pittsburgh

February 3, 2023

Let's discuss the next 48 hours with another brutal cold stretch expected for our area.

The good news is that we have been here before with temperatures falling below 0° Christmas weekend. Temperatures this time around won't be that cold and the cold will not stay around as long as that cold stretch too.

It will still be brutally cold, and if you aren't prepared for the cold, you're running out of time. This is a good time to also double-check and make sure you have things like a roadside kit in your vehicle and ready to go.

I expect partly cloudy skies with winds out of the southwest at around 10mph through the afternoon. Highs should soar to the upper 30s and there is an outside shot of Pittsburgh hitting 40 degrees. Places south of I-70 will have a solid chance to hit 40 degrees with places north of I-80 having no shot.
